Supercharged and Turbocharged Subaru STi

Saw this on H-T and thought I would share. Don't mind the decals, the car is still a beast. I believe he said it has 550 whp and the point was so that he could ahve the quick spoll of a supercharger then switch over to the high top end of the turbo and eliminate any turbo lag cause by such a big turbo.

^ 3 boost gauges - 1 for turbo, 1 for supercharger, and 1 for total boost that the engine sees

I would guess the amount of the car. 30k maybe. Why did they have to ruin the car with those gay decals?

I heard it was to get the car to go fast enough that the decals would peel off and never be seen by anyone again.......
